527: Odious Selfies

Edward Snowden Syntax, WikiLeaks Statements, Stateless Person Claim

Linguistic anomalies in Edward Snowden's public statements, such as using "the United States have" instead of "has," suggest the text may have been written by Julian Assange or a non-native speaker. The hosts question whether Snowden is actually at the Moscow airport or if the entire narrative is a staged operation. They debunk the claim that Snowden is a "stateless person," noting that a revoked passport does not strip citizenship.
